         3 . The apparatus according to  claim 2 , being configured to generate a signal in response to a movement of the regulating component. 
     
     
         4 . The apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein a feed point is disposed at a position of the regulating component in a lengthwise direction, and the circuit board is connected to the feed point through the feed component. 
     
     
         5 . The apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the feed component is a single-layer or multi-layer feed line, a C-clip or a pogo pin. 
     
     
         6 . The apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the circuit board is a PCB which is made of a copper-layer, single-layer or multi-layer flexible circuit. 
     
     
         7 . The apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the regulating component is embedded in the housing, and a side, towards an outside of the housing, of the regulating component is flush with a peripheral surface of the housing; or, an end, towards the outside of the housing, of the regulating component extends out of a periphery of the housing. 
     
     
         8 . The apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the regulating component and the housing have one, two or more contact points therebetween. 
     
     
         9 . The apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the housing comprises a back shell and a frame disposed on the back shell, the circuit board is disposed in a space defined by the frame and the back shell, and an insulative region is disposed between the circuit board and the frame. 
     
     
         10 . The apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein a spacer is disposed between the regulating component and the housing and is made of an insulative material. 
     
     
         11 . The apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the housing is made of a conductive material or an insulative material. 
     
     
         12 . The apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the regulating component is made of a conductive material or is made of a conductive material and an insulative material. 
     
     
         13 . The apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the regulating component is oval, round, rectangular or cylindrical, or is in other regular or irregular shapes. 
     
     
         14 . The apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the regulating component is of a solid structure, a hollow structure or a mesh structure. 
     
     
         15 . The apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein one, two or more regulating components are configured. 
     
     
         16 . The apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the regulating component is a push button, a rotary knob or a rocker switch.
